UNGA: Azerbaijan President Ilham Aliyev's daughter poses for selfies while he talks about genocide

While Azerbaijan President Ilham Aliyev addresses the UNGA his daughter Leyla Aliyeva poses for a selfie

Azerbaijan President Ilham Aliyev was addressing the United Nations General Assembly and talking about how Armenia committed genocide against Azerbaijanis when his 33-year-old daughter was caught clicking selfies.

Leyla Aliyeva was sitting in the audience and recording her father address the UNGA when she posed for selfies with a shocked and surprised face.

Of course she did not realise that she was being recorded by another camera as well and kept recording herself and her father. Leyla recorded herself while she was sitting beside her 53-year-old mother Mehriban who is also the country's vice president.

President Ilham Aliyev was talking about the Armenian aggression during the Nagorno-Karabakh war of 1992 and how due to that more than one million Azerbaijanis have become refugees and internally displaced persons.

"Armenia committed genocide against Azerbaijanis in Khodjaly. The Khodjaly genocide is already officially recognized by more than 20 countries. On February 26, 1992, Armenia committed a war crime, killing 613 peaceful residents, including 106 women and 63 children", Azerbaijan president said.

President Aliyev also listed recent actions taken by Armenia against his country but Armenia's representative seemed to be apathetic to the charges.
